La Rosiere
The La Rosiere tourist board put on the 'Great Egg Hunt' and a treasure hunt. The treasure hunt starts at the tourist office where you will get your booklet of instructions and sends you and your family on a treasure hunt for Easter eggs hidden around the resort. It is great fun and lasts all day until 5pm, from then the Great Egg Hunt begins, both of which are free to join.
La Roseire is an ideal family resort with lots of ski schools and additional facilities throughout the resort such as a cinema, ice rink and bowling alley and has plenty of family friendly accommodation too, so it suits families of any size and age.
